Heiner Fruehauf has to be one of the most interesting people in the field of Chinese Medicine today.
His knowledge of Chinese philosophy is like nothing I’ve ever seen before, and I only witnessed 3 lectures by him. But the amount of information that I have from my notes, and the information that keeps echoing even now, almost 4 months after the lectures, makes me realize that I indeed was in the presence of one of the great people in our beautiful field.
Ah, if I could only move Portland Oregon to Israel…
Classical Pearls is a new product line by Heiner Fruehauf, Chinese herbal formulas, based on Fruehauf’s experience and vast knowledge of classical texts. As stated on the Classical Pearls website: “It is the mission of Classical Pearls to launch a return to the classical and clinic-based roots of Chinese herbal medicine”.
Based on classical texts, but these formulas are well adjusted to treat conditions we face in our clinic on a regular basis.

Don’t tell Eric, but one of the reasons I started blogging in English is the inspiration I got from Deepest Health. And I still am very inspired by Eric and his writing, mainly because I find so much information on his blog that I’ve been looking about CM.
Also, after meeting Heiner Fruehauf in 3 lectures, finding one of his students who provides more about his teachings is like striking gold. That’s a great added bonus.

We start with a nice little tradition- the monthly round up.
I will list all of the posts we made this month, and sometimes- if I feel like it- we will add interesting things we liked this month. Just one of the good side of being my own boss, I can add things I like just because I feel like it.
Let’s begin:
The Heiner Experience Part 2 followed part 1 (this is just the way it goes, you know?), in which we talked about anger, what Heiner had to say about anger in a seminar he gave last month and how all is experienced by me through acupuncture.

I have 2 reasons to get up in the morning- the first one is my perfect husband. The second reason is my beautiful boy.
My son is almost 16 months old. With every day that goes by he gains more and more space in my heart, and is introducing me to amounts of love I never knew possible. Everything changed for me when that boy came into my life, everything changed in so many levels that I can’t really describe it, it’s one of those things one should experience in order to know what I mean.
I studied CM and knew to describe my path in this very un-clear, multi-paths world that is CM:
I’ll finish school, open a clinic, be an assistant with one of the best known practitioners in the country, continue studying, be a teacher’s assistant…
And then life happened- I finished school (along the way my mother passed away), started my own practice and things were going well, I was looking for the best course to take as a post-graduate course, I was an assistant of a well-known practitioner for a year (not the practitioner I wanted but I managed to learn many things from him, mainly what I don’t want to be as a practitioner) and I was a teacher’s assistant in one of the leading schools in the country. 4 years ago my father passed away and this was the first time I felt my practice is not really something I want to have in my life.

Yes, it’s time for part 3 of the “magical mystery tour” aka The Heiner Experience.
It is almost a month since Heiner visited Israel and his lectures and the whole vibe still echos in my heart and brain. I came to the point of frustration (will bring you up-to-date about that in a later post), knowing that the person I want to study from is, well, a bit *too* far from where I am.
Nuts.
I asked Heiner to send me his answers to my questions again, and he graciously did so, so now I can share it with you.
Just so you’ll know, as this was an interview for the ICCM congress here in Israel, it is more about Heiner and CM in general, we did not go into specifics.
Maybe next time.
Still, I think it’s an interesting interview and I am happy to share it with you, as part of the whole Heiner Experience.
Enjoy!
